#32771 [Opn->Asn]: is_dir() returns false for absolute path. Even if it is a folder

ID: 32771 Updated by: tony2001@php.net Reported By: silkensedai at online dot fr -Status: Open +Status: Assigned Bug Type: *Directory/Filesystem functions Operating System: GNU/Linux Ubuntu 5.4 PHP Version: 5.0.4 -Assigned To: +Assigned To: wez New Comment: is_file() does the same thing when the owner of the file is not the owner of the script. IMO that's how safe_mode works. Wez, is this the expected behaviour or am I wrong?

For example is_dir('/mnt') won't work (return false). But it works for relative path. Example: $ php -r 'clearstatcache();var_dump(is_dir("/mnt/"));' bool(false) $ php -r 'clearstatcache();var_dump(is_dir("./Templates"));' bool(true) $ test -d "/mnt/" && echo dir || echo not_dir dir $ test -d "./Templates" && echo dir || echo not_dir dir From phpinfo(): PHP Version 5.0.4 System: Linux louve 2.6.10-5-386 #1 Tue Apr 5 12:12:40 UTC 2005 i686 Configure Command: './configure' '--quiet' '--enable-cli' '--enable-cgi' '--disable-all' '--disable-rpath' '--disable-debug' '--disable-path-info-check' '--disable-magic-quotes' '--disable-posix' '--disable-short-tags' '--enable-ipv6' '--disable-static' '--disable-pcntl' '--without-pear' '--with-apxs2=/usr/bin/apxs2' '--with-mysql=/usr' '--with-mysqli=/usr/bin/mysql_config' '--with-zlib' '--with-bz2' '--with-dbx' '--with-ctype' '--with-openssl' '--with-pcre-regex' '--with-gettext' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-mhash' '--with-iconv' '--with-sqlite' '--with-sqlite-utf8' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir' '--with-png-dir' '--with-zlib-dir' '--with-xpm-dir' '--with-ttf' '--with-xsl' '--with-tsrm-pthreads' '--with-tidy' '--with-freetype-dir' '--enable-gd-native-ttf' '--enable-safe-mode' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-mbstring' '--enable-spl' '--enable-ftp' '--enable-bcmath' '--enable-sockets' '--enable-dom' '--enable-xml' '--enable-soap' '--enable-libxml' '--enable-session' '--enable-simplexml' '--enable-memory-limit' Server API Apache 2.0 Handler PHP API 20031224 PHP Extension 20041030 Zend Extension 220040412 Reproduce code: --------------- print is_dir('/')?"dir: /":"not_dir: /"; Expected result: ---------------- dir: / Actual result: -------------- not_dir: / ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32771&edit=1
